Squid Game Actress Almost Declined Her Role To Continue Modeling
Oct 06 2021
Netflix’s Squid Game breakout star Hoyeon Jung, who plays number 067, Kang Saeyeok, is all anyone can talk about. The charismatic actress was originally a model from South Korea who was very hesitant to take the role. Squid Game has become Netflix’s top tv show in 83 countries worldwide, on its way to becoming the streaming platform’s biggest show ever. While all the actors have gained tremendous amounts of fame internationally, no one compares to the actress who plays, 067, Hoyeon Jung. She has become the most followed South Korean actress on Instagram with over 13.2 million followers.
Born in Seoul, South Korea, in June 1994, she started modelling at the young age of 16 in 2013 and found some work during Seoul Fashion Week. She made her international modelling debut in 2016 after she dyed her hair red. The fiery colour became her signature and made her stand out. Jung Hoyeon walked for Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Roberto Cavalli and more top runways. But she always wanted to be known as an actor. Soon after transferring to her agency, she was given the chance to audition for Squid Game. It was her first role and first audition. When she got the part, her first reaction was “Why?”. She questioned if she could do it. But with the support of her boyfriend Kim Donghwi and her BFF, Blackpink’s Jennie, she went forth with the role.
